Yesterday, they just quit working. Lefts are fine. Bulbs are good, parking lights work, hazards all work. When a bulb has gone out in the past, it doesn't blink, but the indicator light comes on. Now I have nothing. No light, no blink, no click. confused24.gif

1. Switch your relays around and see if it changes things!

switched all three. no change.
SirAndy
wire came loose from the blinker housing.
check from the back (inside fenderwell).
make sure all contacts are clean.
wiggle the bulb. they sometimes lose contact, clean the metal spring strip, make sure it's not bend backwards too far.
clean the metal sleeve where the bulb slides in. it's where you get the ground and they tend to corrode.

Are thy not the same filaments as the flashers? Why would the flasher work and not the signal?

hmmm, that's right, BUT i "think" the flashers have separate wires. or was that the driving lights? don't remember, but you have 2 hot wires going to the blinker and 1 ground ...

soooo, one could still have come loose ...

I checked all once, but I'll do it again. Certainly can't hurt.
